Well Dante did have a problem with his demonic side in DMC3 and the DMC3 manga. In the manga he has huge gripes with Vergil wanting to open the gate to the demon world in large part because demons killed his mom, something he brings up to Vergil.

In DMC3 when Vergil asks why Dante refuses to gain the power of "their father" Dante chuckles and says he doesn't have a father. He also constantly complains about all the crap he gets from various demons about his lineage. He also didn't consider the raising of Temen Ni Gru as a "family problem", however after meeting Lady he considers it a part of his responsibility as a Son of Sparda to keep it closed and to stop Vergil. In his final battle against Vergil he finally acknowledges that he is a Son of Sparda, and that both Sparda's blood and soul run through him. In DMC1 he also goes to stop Mundus in his fathers name.

Dante has no real issues with hunting demons even though he is one because most demons are out to harm people. Dante sides with humans but does have mercy for demons he believes have souls/hearts/conciousnesses(Bradley, Trish, Lucia).
